"Radioactive water reaches N.J. aquifer" by Associated Press | May 8, 2010
LACEY TOWNSHIP, N.J. — Radioactive water that leaked from the nation’s oldest nuclear power plant has reached an aquifer that supplies drinking water to much of southern New Jersey, the state’s environmental chief said yesterday.

Looks like the AmeriKan MSM and Globe care as much about your health as ours, New Jersey citizens.
The state Department of Environmental Protection has ordered the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station to halt the spread of contaminated water underground, even as it said there was no imminent threat to drinking water supplies....
Yeah, the CANCER WON'T SHOW UP for 20 years, and then it will be hard as hell to prove!
Tritium is found naturally in tiny amounts and is a product of nuclear fission. It has been linked to cancer if ingested, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin in large amounts.
Hey THAT LEAKED INTO OUR RIVER UP HERE!!!
Better CHECK your SOIL! Might be SOMETHING WORSE!
“There is a problem here,’’ said environmental Commissioner Bob Martin. “I am worried about the continuing spread of the tritium into the groundwater and its gradual moving toward wells in the area.’’
Yup, BOTTLED WATER it is, huh?
The tritium leaked from underground pipes at the plant on April 9 of last year and has been slowly spreading underground at 1 to 3 feet a day.
Did your energy corporation deny they existed?
At the current rate, it would be 14 or 15 years before the tainted water reaches the nearest private or commercial drinking water wells about 2 miles away.
That is what the LYING GOVERNMENT SAYS, huh?
Yeah, that's WAY DOWN the ROAD!
Your KIDS and GRANDKIDS can DRINK THAT WATER!
Who needs to worry now!
FIRE UP that POWER PLANT!
But the mere fact that the radioactive water — at concentrations 50 times higher than those allowed by law — has reached southern New Jersey’s main source of drinking water calls for urgent action, Martin said.
You GOT 15 YEARS! Don't worry about it!
We have GLOBAL WARMING and TERRORISTS to FIGHT FIRST!
Yeah, we are going to NEED that NUCLEAR POWER!
He ordered the Chicago-based company to install new monitoring wells to better measure the extent of the contamination, and to develop a plan to keep it from ever reaching a well.
A real urgent reaction, 'eh?
Yeah, there's cancer-causing chemicals coming in, yup.
No need for alarm.

"STUDENTS PROTEST CUTS IN NEW JERSEY -- A large demonstration prompted by a student's Facebook page disrupted classes across the state yesterday, as high school students aimed to send a message to Governor Christopher J. Christie about budget cuts. The largest showing was in Newark (above), where students assembled at City Hall (Boston Globe April 28 2010)."
